Hello,
I just started digging deeper into resource room permission managment and I
can't seem to enter the correct syntax to do what I want.
I created a room to use as a public calendar. What I want is to one user
have all rights to it (FullAccess) and only a few users have view/edit
rights. I was working on setting the Allrequestinpolicy and
allrequestoutpolicy as true so that the fullaccess user can approve or not
but I keep getting parameter not found. Is this not the right command? I
would like it for the calendar to not be visible to everyone and only have
some users (i.e accounting department) view rights but not edit rights. There
is no OU set up for the departments so I will have to list the names i guess.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for the help!

Start by sharing what version of Exchange you're running and then follow up
with the exact steps you're taking and what you're seeing.

Oh yes, of course. Sorry.
I am using Exchange 2007.
I start by copying a current user account to create a new user on the same
OU. Then from exchange, I create a new resource room and choose Existing user
when prompted for user type. I choose the already created user and proceed to
create the resource room.
From exchange Shell, I use the command below to autoaccept invitations and
do not allow conflicts.

Set-MailboxCalendarSettings Resource1 -AutomateProcessing:Autoaccept

In this case the calendar needs one user to be have full access, so i used:
Set-MailboxCalendarSettings Resource1 -user adminuser -AccessRights FullAccess

Now I am trying to configure the room so that only some users can create
something on a calendar only after the owner of the calendar has allow to.
The owner (useradmin) should be prompted with any calendar request made by a
user in the department. I tried this using this command but it fails.

Set-MailboxCalendarSettings Resource1 -Allrequestinpolicy false

I get the following error:

Set-MailboxCalendarSettings : Cannot convert 'System.String' to the type
'Syste
m.Boolean' required by parameter 'AllRequestInPolicy'.
At line:1 char:64
+ Set-MailboxCalendarSettings accountcalendar -Allrequestinpolicy <<<< false

Is it my syntax? Or am I taking the incorrect approach?

I haven't checked all the parameters of your command, but you do have a
syntax error. It should be this:

Set-MailboxCalendarSettings Resource1 -Allrequestinpolicy:$False

The dollar sign is required as part of False, and I usually use the colon
instead of a space because I know it will work.
